Pros

This is a fast paced company that keeps on the cutting edge of the meeting and conference industry. They are very result oriented as opposed to hours oriented. So, one week you may put in 30 (for full time employees) and then another week 50-60. They even out very well and I love the freedom they give to perform your best.

Cons

Career paths are not totally clear. It takes time to understand the culture and it is difficult to move up. As with many larger organizations, you have to be able to play to the politics and know the right people to get the right promotions.

Pros

The pros were the per diem and the opportunity to travel. I really enjoyed visiting new cities and collaborating with kind, interesting people from across the country at different show sites. The pay was also very strong during busy seasons.

Cons

If you want to join a company where employees are undervalued, expected to obey rather than think critically, and favoritism is openly visible, then please avoid this company. The environment often felt heavily micromanaged at every level of leadership, with experiences of both covert and overt racism in the workplace. There was also a strong sense of competition and distrust among coworkers, where people would undermine one another for personal gain. Leadership and upper management appeared far more focused on optics and appearances than the actual well-being of the employees working on the show floor.
